Yes i know it's a tired and used problem and i've searched the net on =
this one but the answers i receive just don't seem to work so here goes.
I'm running SuSE 7.2 using the latest GeForce 2 (Creative Titanium) with =
the latest Nvidia drivers (downloaded from Nvidia's site).
When i run quake3, i get the following:
bash-2.05# quake3 +set r_gldriver /usr/lib/libGL.so.1

I *DO* have a 640x480 mode on my machine and i can switch to it using =
the ctrl+Alt+(+/=3D) key combo. However when setting it thru sax2, the =
viewport is always too small for it. By this i mean that when using =
640x480, the whole screen moves when i move the mouse to any corner of =
the screen.
Another thing. When i try to run /usr/bin/gears i get the message :
GLUT: Fatal Error in gears: visual with necessary capabilities not =
found.
If anybody has any ideas, i'd be most gratefull.
For completeness i'm pasting my *enitire* XF86Config file below.
